Sami Kiminki 5d09c908b0 gpu: nvgpu: Direct GMMU PTE kind control ...

Allow userspace to control directly the PTE kind for the mappings by
supplying NVGPU_AS_MAP_BUFFER_FLAGS_DIRECT_KIND_CTRL for MAP_BUFFER_EX.

In particular, in this mode, the userspace will tell the kernel
whether the kind is compressible, and if so, what is the
incompressible fallback kind. By supplying only the compressible kind,
the userspace can require that the map kind will not be demoted to the
incompressible fallback kind in case of comptag allocation failure.

Add also a GPU characteristics flag
NVGPU_GPU_FLAGS_SUPPORT_MAP_DIRECT_KIND_CTRL to signal whether direct
kind control is supported.

Fix indentation of nvgpu_as_map_buffer_ex_args header comment.
